An array of Enum reflection objects, one for each case in the Enum. For a Unit Enum, they will all be instances of ReflectionEnumUnitCase. For a Backed Enum, they will all be instances of ReflectionEnumBackedCase.

### Beispiele

Beispiel #1 ReflectionEnum::getCases() example

`<?php
enum Suit
{
case Hearts;
case Diamonds;
case Clubs;
case Spades;
}
$rEnum = new ReflectionEnum(Suit::class);
$cases = $rEnum->getCases();
foreach ($cases as $rCase) {
var_dump($rCase->getValue());
}
?>`

Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe:

    enum(Suit::Hearts)
    enum(Suit::Diamonds)
